Do any of you guys now a company that produces quality mice where their firmware is open source and can be flashed/programmed with opens source software?

If the shape or look of it is important to you, you may want to mention that in your post with the other info (not everyone reads through all the comments before commenting themselves.) Maybe give an example of what you do like? That way it's more likely that someone will help find what you're looking for, and less likely that you'll get a ton of suggestions for mice you're not looking for :)

Yeah its not the prettiest mouse, but its open thats a huge plus. I like a lot the extra buttons at the edge. Good for switching layers or alt tabbing etc 😀
